Mo Xiaofei quickly said, “This is the muse I was talking about. I haven’t paid attention to her for a long time because I lost my power. I don’t know how she suddenly appeared here. She seems to have regained her power.”
Zixing made a silent gesture and assessed the situation solemnly.
At this time, what came out of the old tree was Tagitsuhime, who fell into the Unripe Rice Village time reset at the same time as Mo Xiaofei!
“I feel a faint demon beast qi, and I wonder who it will be. It turns out that you, the fox demon beast killed the innocents here.” Tagitsuhime’s face was frosty, not angry, and majestic. It exuded the divine power!
“Deity?” Nagato Munechika frowned with his expression dignified but still calm, “You are weak. I can feel it. This bit of power has no effect on me.”
“Hmph, arrogance! You don’t know what divine power is!” Tagitsuhime snorted again.
Her current state was indeed terrible. Her divine power had run dry. However, as one of the three Munakata Muses born by Amaterasu Omikami, she had the sun muse spiritual qi, which Amaterasu Omikami bestowed upon her. It had extreme restraining effects on all vile demon beast!
“You’re just a fake.” Nagato Munechika’s face showed a strange smile again.
The cyan fox demon beast fire appeared in Nagato Munechika’s palm. Tagitsuhime had already witnessed Nagato Munechika’s bizarre ‘fox demon beast fire’ not long ago, so she didn’t dare to lower her guard at the moment.
She pushed out her hands and put down a barrier capable of fending off attacks in front of her!
This was the barrier that could resist most of the demon beast’s evil power. The source of power was not divine power, but the divine item given by Amaterasu Omikami, which she had worn on her! It was precisely because of this treasure that Tagitsuhime was not afraid of the ‘demon beast,’ Nagato Munechika, albeit having her divine power running dry!
The fox demon beast jeered!
The cyan “fox demon beast fire” attached itself to Tagitsuhime’s barrier, burning frantically!
It managed to infiltrate the barrier in the end!
What shocked Tagitsuhime happened unhindered! The fox demon beast fire quickly tore open the barrier released by her treasure and directly adhered to her body!
“What kind of fire is this!?”
This fox demon beast fire spread all over her body instantly. It began to burn her divine body! Due to the great pain, Tagitsuhime immediately fell to her knees.
But after all, unlike a mortal body like Saburo Nagato, Tagitsuhime was still struggling at this moment.
It was just that Tagitsuhime’s consciousness quickly dissipated under the fox demon beast fire’s onslaught. She didn’t last long before she passed out.
Nagato Munechika approached Tagitsuhime, flipped her body over before lifting the vulnerable Tagitsuhime.
Nagato Munechika glanced at the coming full moon in the sky at this time. He smiled slyly, then picked up Tagitsuhime’s body like that and returned to his bedroom.
Mo Xiaofei and Zixing hid at their best ability, holding all their breaths. Nagato Munechika didn’t seem to realize that there were foreigners hidden in his room. He just hugged Tagitsuhime’s body and walked into the bedroom’s secret path to enter the dungeon.
“What kind of fire is that? The fox demon beast fire is too scary!” Mo Xiaofei was a little worried at this time, wondering if his superpowers would be able to resist it even if they were all restored.
Zixing muttered to herself at this time, “Why is the cyan fire similar to the Green Lotus Fire in the legend of the Divine Land’s fox clan?”
“Green Lotus Fire?”
Seeing that Nagato Munechika had entered the dungeon, Mo Xiaofei spoke a little loudly at this time.
Zixing nodded, “Green Lotus Fire is a kind of bizarre flame that only the Divine Land fox demon beast clan can master. It can be traced back to the Shang dynasty. Do you know Daji?
“Investiture of the Gods?” Mo Xiaofei nodded subconsciously, “But isn’t it just fiction?”
“Brother Mo, Divine Land is much larger than you think.” Zixing shook her head, “It’s not convenient to elaborate on this matter at this time. But if you want to know, you can go back and ask Master Long. Divine Land Master Long must know more than my Greedy Wolf Clan record.”
Mo Xiaofei knew that Zixing seemed to have other concerns in her mind, so he didn’t immediately follow up with the question. However, he was determined to ask his teacher if he could go back safely.
The two had their separate thoughts in this bedroom, but there was one thing that made Mo Xiaofei delighted. Up to the present location and the present time, time had not been reset. They seemed to unveil the Nagato family’s secret.
Mo Xiaofei looked toward Chizuko Nagato subconsciously. But she hadn’t been able to wake up yet.
If the story of the Yan Wuyue world and the movie world were connected, would Chizuko Nagato still die bizarrely? The day which Mo Xiaofei’s reset loop had been stopping him from reaching would be critical.
Not long after, Zixing sighed and said, “I think we shall leave first. I am afraid that Nagato Munechika will not come out in a short time.”
Mo Xiaofei nodded. He also wanted to find out if the time would be reset after three days. It would be unwise to get in contact with Nagato Munechika recklessly. The strength disparity between the two was wide. So, they got to think twice before acting.
“Send Chizuko Nagato back first. Nagato Munechika probably hasn’t discovered that the Tsukihime Kondo at the banquet is a fake. You aren’t exposed yet for this round. We can stay at Nagato’s house temporarily.” Zixing looked at Mo Xiaofei and said her plan.
“That will be great!”
…
The startled birds flew out of the forest.
A giant cherry blossom tree was behind You Ye. What laid in front of her was the old shrine. The maid, who had just managed to cross the last step on the shrine stair, was sandwiched between the two.
You Ye glanced at the shrine. Then, she threw her gaze at the wooden fence in front of the shrine used to hang the wooden wish boards. She then crossed the shrine and walked to the path leading to a place laid behind the shrine.
Soon after, You Ye came to the entrance of a cave. There was a rope, with the purpose of sealing something, hanging at the entrance.
You Ye took a step forward and appeared directly in the cave.
When she came to the pool in the depths of the cave, someone was already there. She wore a white kimono.
The young witch of the shrine in front of her was kneeling on the ground at this time, holding a small basin with both her hands. The basin was filled with water from the pool. She used it to wash her body.
“It’s you?” The young witch opened her mouth.
Probably because the other party was also a female, so even if the shrine witch’s skin was vaguely exposed due to the thin white kimono and water, she did not mind it.
What a young body…
The maid smiled slightly and said softly, “Can I borrow the pool water here? The pool water here is great. It seems to have a great effect at washing away dirty and inauspicious things.”
The young witch did not speak. She seemed to be contemplating and finally nodded slightly.
“Thank you.”
You Ye gestured her appreciation. Then, she stretched out the band that fastened her maid uniform at the neckline. The slightly thick black and white maid dress slipped off instantly, and the young witch subconsciously tilted her head.
